Design and Display

As it appears, the Huawei Y7 Prime (2017) is a well built put together smartphone which will easily fit well in the nicely built smartphones category.

First, there is an obvious but thin bezel at the side with nicely sized bottom and top bezel. You’ve got Huawei boldy written at the bottom bezel up front which is kind of unnecessary and the usuals-camera, sensors and speaker.

The rear on the other hand is made of aluminium with the camera at the top left corner and Huawei’s logo at the bottom.

Considering its only an HD screen and an LCD one at that, display is somewhat subservient. However, being a budget smartphone, you might as well cut it some slack.

The Huawei Y7 Prime (2018) has a 5.99-inch sized display with a resolution of 1440 X 720 pixels and a 269 ppi pixel density.

Battery and Camera

As for the battery, you have quite enough juice to keep the smartphone powered on for a day of usage. Supplied by a 3, 000mAh Li-Po battery, you should be able to get enough usage time with the low resolution display. Like you might have guessed, the smartphone does not have fast charge.

Talking about optics, the smartphone has a decent setup in place. Which includes a dual rear camera with 13MP primary camera and a 2MP secondary sensor for gathering more depth.

This produces nice pictures with less detail on the background while focusing more on the subject. Taking selfies is done by the 8MP front  camera.

Hardware and Software

Pertaining to the hardware, there is really nothing much to say besides that it befits a budget smartphone. This brings us to the Qualcomm MSM8937 Snapdragon 430 which runs up to 1.4GHz in clock speed. This is accompanied by an Adreno 505 GPU on board for graphics munching.

This goes on to include 3GB RAM and a 32GB built-in storage space with an expansion limit of 256GB. Likewise, the smartphone has an Android 8.0 Oreo with EMUI layed over it.

Huawei Y7 Prime (2018) Price and Availability
